With X-Men: Days of Future Past doing impressive numbers at the box office, GlitchSoft opted to pay tribute to the original comic book that inspired it with Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past, now available for mobile. This game goes back to the good old days of hack-and-slash action, as Wolverine and other X-Men characters take on a powerful army, led by the devastating Sentinels.
Think this comic book adventure might be too much to handle? Don't worry, we've got the tips needed to make you feel as smart as Professor X.
The game uses on-screen directional buttons to control your character's movements, along with jump and attack buttons, which feature swipe techniques for special attacks. The controls are actually pretty good, and respond most of the time to your commands. You'll have no problem getting through this game.
You can switch between these characters at any time, but your best bets for the game are either Wolverine or Colossus. They're powerful enough to bring characters down quickly, and you can also use them to reach higher ledges as well as the smaller characters. They're your best bets overall, though you can certainly experiment with the others.
The best place to start is with Wolverine and Colossus, the two best characters in the game. Unlocking Wolverine's new slash techniques and Colossus' powerful ground pound attacks will go a long way into clearing the area of enemies. They also do massive damage against boss enemies, even if they appear to be unbeatable at first.
Fill up on your XP, then go to town on spending. If you're unsure what a certain attack does (or how to execute it), simply read the description. It provides all the details for you.
